Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for producing a high-purity alicyclic aldehyde that is used as a raw material for perfumes or intermediate products of medicines and agricultural chemicals in a high yield and in an industrially advantageous manner, and more particularly to a process for producing an alicyclic aldehyde having a structure derived from the hydrogenation of the aromatic ring of a corresponding aromatic aldehyde.
  • Known methods for the production of alicyclic aldehydes include a method of reducing an ester of a corresponding alicyclic carboxylic acid ( USP 3,660,416 ); a method of oxidizing a corresponding alicyclic alcohol ( USP 3,901,896 ); a method of reducing a corresponding alicyclic carboxylic acid ( EP 439115A and WO 00/12457 ); and a method of formylating a corresponding alicyclic olefin with hydrogen and carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide ( JP 5-246925A and JP 2001-233795A ).
  • the method of reducing the ester of alicyclic carboxylic acid requires a step of converting an alicyclic carboxylic acid into its ester to complicate the process. Also, in the method of reducing the alicyclic carboxylic acid, the reduction reaction must be carried out under severe conditions, or compounds that are not readily industrially available must be used. Further, in the method using the corresponding olefin or alcohol as the starting material, an additional reaction step such as Diels-Alder reaction is required.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing an alicyclic aldehyde in a high yield and in an industrially advantageous manner.
  • the inventors have found that the aimed alicyclic aldehyde is produced by acetalizing an aromatic aldehyde to protect the formyl group, hydrogenating the resultant aromatic acetal to obtain an alicyclic acetal, and then hydrolyzing the obtained alicyclic acetal to cleave the protecting group.
  • the inventors have further found that the alicyclic aldehyde is produced more selectively by hydrogenating the aromatic acetal in the presence of an acid.
  • the present invention has been accomplished on the basis of this finding.
  • the present invention provides a process for producing an alicyclic aldehyde, comprising the following steps of:
  • the step B is conducted in the presence of a noble metal-containing catalyst and further in the presence of an acid.
  • the aromatic acetal is produced by acetalizing the aromatic aldehyde with an acetalizing agent such as alcohols.
  • an acetalizing agent such as alcohols. The method of producing the aromatic acetal from the aromatic aldehyde is described below.
  • the starting aromatic aldehyde is not particularly limited as far as it has at least one formyl group on its aromatic ring, and may be appropriately selected from various compounds according to the end use of the final products.
  • aromatic aldehyde examples include benzaldehyde, p-tolualdehyde, o-tolualdehyde, m-tolualdehyde, 2,4-dimethyl benzaldehyde, 2,5-dimethylbenzaldehyde, 3,4-dimethylbenzaldehyde, 2,4,5-trimethylbenzaldehyde, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzaldehyde, p-n-propylbenzaldehyde, o-n-propylbenzaldehyde, m-n-propylbenzaldehyde, p-isopropylbenzaldehyde, o-isopropylbenzaldehyde, m-isopropylbenzaldehyde, p-n-butylbenzaldehyde, o-n-butylbenzaldehyde, m-n-butylbenzaldehyde, p-is
  • aromatic aldehydes in view of industrial utilization of the alicyclic aldehyde to be produced, preferred are benzaldehyde, p-tolualdehyde, 2,4-dimethylbenzaldehyde, 3,4-dimethylbenzaldehyde, 2,4,5-trimethylbenzaldehyde, p-isopropylbenzaldehyde and p-isobutylbenzaldehyde.
  • the aromatic aldehydes of commercially available grades may be sufficiently used.
  • the alcohol as the acetalizing agent includes alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, ethylene glycol, 1,2-propane diol, 1,3-propane diol, neopentyl glycol, pentaerythritol and sorbitol, with ethylene glycol, pentaerythritol and sorbitol being particularly preferred.
  • the amount of the acetalizing agent to be used is preferably 5 to 100 mol for the monohydric compound and preferably 2 to 100 mol for the polyhydric compound, each per one mole of the aromatic aldehyde.
  • the above aromatic aldehyde and the acetalizing agent may be appropriately combined for the acetalization.
  • the combination of benzaldehyde with ethylene glycol provides 2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane.
  • the combination of 2,4-dimethylbenzaldehyde with ethylene glycol provides 2-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-1,3-dioxolane.
  • the aromatic aldehyde is acetalized with an acetalizing agent in a solvent in the presence of an acid catalyst under reflux. Since the acetalization reaction is a dehydration reaction, it is required to remove the water being generated during the reaction from the reaction system.
  • the reaction temperature is selected from the refluxing temperature range of the solvent used. The acetalization is generally completed within 5 to 48 h.
  • the acetalization is carried out preferably in the presence of a solvent.
  • the preferred solvents are aromatic or aliphatic hydrocarbons having 6 to 9 carbon atoms. Examples of the solvent include hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, benzene and toluene.
  • the solvent is used in an amount so as to make the concentration of the aromatic aldehyde in the reaction solution into preferably 1 to 50% by weight, more preferably 5 to 40% by weight.
  • the acid catalyst is selected from p-toluenesulfonic acid, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, nitric acid and zeolite, and used in an amount of preferably 0.01 to 1.0 mol or 0.5 to 10 g (for zeolite) per one mole of the aromatic aldehyde.
  • the reaction product solution is preferably distilled to obtain the aromatic acetal, which is then subjected to hydrogenation in the step B.
  • the distillation residue may be recycled to an acetalization vessel. The proportion of the distillation residue to be recycled may be appropriately determined according to the reaction conditions. Next, the hydrogenation of the thus obtained aromatic acetal is described.
  • Step B Hydrogenation of aromatic acetal
  • the aromatic acetal is hydrogenated by hydrogen gas in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, in the presence or absence of a solvent, and in the presence of an acid.
  • the solvent examples include hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, esters, ketones, ethers, alcohols, aliphatic acids and water, with methanol and tetrahydrofuran being preferred.
  • the concentration of the aromatic acetal in the reaction solution is preferably 5 to 50% by weight and more preferably 10 to 40% by weight.
  • the hydrogenation is promoted to increase the selectivity to the alicyclic acetal.
  • acids examples include saturated aliphatic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid; and inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, zeolite and heteropoly-acids.
  • saturated aliphatic acids such as acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid
  • inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, zeolite and heteropoly-acids.
  • the acid is used so that the acid concentration in the reaction solution is 0.5 to 10% by weight.
  • a noble metal-containing catalyst is used as the hydrogenation catalyst.
  • the noble metal is preferably at least one metal selected from the group consisting of rhodium, palladium and ruthenium, with the sole use of rhodium being more preferred.
  • the noble metal is preferably supported on a carrier such as carbon and alumina, particularly, on alumina.
  • the shape of the catalyst is not particularly limited, and may be selected from a powder, and crushed particles and pellets for fixed bed according to the hydrogenation manner.
  • the amount of the noble metal supported on the carrier is preferably 0.5 to 30% by weight and more preferably 0.5 to 10% by weight on the basis of the total weight of the catalyst.
  • the hydrogenation may be carried out in either batch-wise manner or continuous manner.
  • the aromatic acetal is hydrogenated under a hydrogen partial pressure of 0.01 MPa or higher (pressure at the reaction temperature, the same is applied below) in the presence of the noble metal-containing catalyst in an amount of 0.5 to 10 parts by weight in terms of the noble metal. If the amount of the noble metal used is less than 0.5 part by weight per 100 parts by weight of the aromatic acetal, the hydrogenation may fail to proceed sufficiently. An amount exceeding 10 parts by weight creates no additional catalytic effect and is rather economically disadvantageous.
  • the noble metal-containing catalyst is used preferably 0.5 to 5.0 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the aromatic acetal in terms of noble metal.
  • the hydrogen partial pressure is less than 0.01 MPa, it becomes difficult to achieve a desired conversion, thereby failing to achieve the object of the present invention.
  • the hydrogen partial pressure is preferably 0.01 to 15 MPa.
  • the hydrogenation temperature is preferably 0 to 180°C.
  • the hydrogenation time may vary depending upon the reaction temperature and other conditions, and therefore, is not critical. Usually, the reaction time of 30 to 360 min is sufficient for completing the hydrogenation.
  • the aromatic acetal is hydrogenated under a hydrogen partial pressure of 0.01 MPa or higher while feeding the aromatic acetal into a packed bed of the noble metal-containing catalyst at a rate of 1 to 100 parts by weight/h per one part by weight of the noble metal, i.e., at a weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) of 1 to 100 h -1 .
  • WHSV weight hourly space velocity
  • WHSV of less than 1 h -1 is unpractical because of low production efficiency.
  • WHSC exceeding 100 h -1 fails to achieve a desired conversion, resulting in failure to accomplish the object of the present invention.
  • WHSV is preferably 3 to 50 h -1 .
  • the hydrogen partial pressure and hydrogenation temperature are the same as described above with respect to the batch-wise manner.
  • the continuous hydrogenation may be carried out in either a liquid filling system or a liquid-through system, with the liquid-through system being preferred.
  • the reactor used in the hydrogenation may be made of stainless steel such as SUS304, SUS316 and SUS316L.
  • Ordinary pressure reactors made of iron or stainless steel which have been subjected to glass lining may be also usable.
  • the produced alicyclic acetal is dissolved in the solvent. After removing the noble metal-containing catalyst by filtration, the filtrate is distilled to obtain the alicyclic acetal separately from the solvent.
  • the starting aromatic acetal may be hydrogenated either completely or partially depending upon the kind of the aimed alicyclic acetal.
  • Products of complete hydrogenation may include 2-cyclohexyl-1,3-dioxolane from 2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane, and 2-(2,4-dimethylcyclohexyl)-1,3-dioxolane from 2-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-1,3-dioxolane.
  • Products of partial hydrogenation may include a compound having a tetralin skeleton produced from a starting aromatic acetal having a naphthalene skeleton, and a compound having both a benzene ring and a cyclohexane ring which is produced from a starting aromatic acetal having two benzene rings by hydrogenating only one of the benzene rings into a cyclohexane ring.
  • reaction product solution may be distilled to separate the alicyclic acetal.
  • the distillation residue may be recycled to the reactor for hydrogenation.
  • the proportion of the amount of distillation residue to be recycled may be determined according to the hydrogenation conditions.
  • Step C Hydrolysis of alicyclic acetal
  • the alicyclic acetal obtained in the step B is then hydrolyzed into the alicyclic aldehyde.
  • 2-cyclohexyl-1,3-dioxolane is hydrolyzed into cyclohexylaldehyde, and 2-(2,4-dimethylcyclohexyl)-1,3-dioxolane into 2,4-dimethylcyclohexyaldehyde.
  • the hydrolysis of the alicyclic acetal is preferably carried out in water as a solvent, more preferably in the presence of an acid such as acetic acid, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, and still more preferably in the presence of acetic acid.
  • the amount of water to be used is preferably 0.1 to 100 times by weight the alicyclic acetal.
  • the amount of the acid to be used is preferably 0.1 to 10 mol per one mole of the alicyclic acetal.
  • Water and the acid of ordinary grade may be used without any pre-treatment. If the amounts of water and the acid are less than the above ranges, the rate of hydrolysis is low. If exceeding the above ranges, the recovery of the resultant alicyclic aldehyde unfavorably becomes difficult.
  • the temperature is preferably 0 to 100°C.
  • the hydrolysis proceeds by merely stirring the mixed solution of the alicyclic acetal, water and the acid, or by refluxing the mixed solution under heating.
  • the hydrolysis may be completed by maintaining the reaction system at the hydrolysis temperature for about 1 to 360 min under stirring.
  • the hydrolysis is preferably conducted in an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen gas atmosphere.
